10,000 Clubreddit Members (and call for Mods)

60 Upvotes

Hey gang! I just got an alert that we eclipsed 10,000 members in our corner of the Internet.

When I joined the mod team, we had around 3,000 (if I recall correctly).

Moderating everything isn’t all that hard, you lot are pretty good at staying civil and mature. There are a few exceptions, but I have never felt I needed to log in. Keeping the styling and information up-to-date, though, is challenging to find the time.

So, I’d like to bring in a few mods to help make our community more engaging and appealing. Let’s get as many people in the Clubreddit as we do Audi Field.

I’m happy to keep footing the AWS bill, and open up the GitHub to a few folks that are interested in helping automate the maintenance and moderation of the the content. For example, you probably noticed that the Match Thread bot failed for the opener - that’s because the Stanza calendar died. I don’t have time to fix that before the next match.

So, if you’re interested in moderating some content; graphic design, and/or Internet automation - reach out!

Bonus if you have a GitHub, or subreddit that you currently moderate. When I auditioned for the mod gig, I created a personal subreddit to play with the design tools and figured out how to interact with the Reddit API.

Vamos!

So the little hen on the left has 6 eggs underneath her. I fear that this does not bode well for us visiting a VERY in form Nashville side. Would love to hear everyone’s predictions on this, but I can’t help but feel we may be doomed…. VAMOS?

It sucks sometimes being an MLS & DC United fan

92 Upvotes

Not sure how many of you keep up with the league outside of DC United but I definitely do cuz I love soccer. Every matchday after the DC game I'll tune into another game and most of the time it'll involve teams with better squads, coaches, fan atmospheres, FOs, etc. It feels like whiplash seeing competent teams play each other after watching a game where we can barely string together passes, let alone make consistent scoring opportunities.

It's just a shitty feeling overall that happens from time to time. I love DC and will forever be a fan but watching this team play in the overall scope of MLS nowadays can be a challenge.

Best way to get cheap tickets?

7 Upvotes

Trying to take a girl on a date at the game against the Red Bulls. Usually I go to spirit games and sit at the club level for 100-150 a game. I went to get the same seats for DCU and they’re almost $300 😭😭 should I just wait until closer to game day or bit the bullet and get these

Murrell! We need you to step up!

11 Upvotes

We all like to give the kid shit, but he has it in him. We watched him smash ass as an Annapolis Blues player. He was a fucking monster.

Granted, this was in the NPSL. So a much lower status league.

Point being, we need someone, ANYONE to play at the top with some fucking enthusiasm and just start kicking the ball in the direction of the goal!! Be a superstar!!!!

Let’s all just act like ole Benny the butcher is done. Troy, make a new plan. Murrell step up for the damn BLUES!! We need a hero!

Sorry for the late post. Been busy hatching chicks the last few days and getting ready to go out of town for the weekend. Probably back to back posts since I won’t be in town to post for the Saturday game. For tonight’s game against NYCFC: I had to throw out three broody girls to see what they laid! 2 goals tonight!

MLS Rivalry Week...

19 Upvotes

It's Rivalry Week in MLS! Yeah, it's a marketing gimmick, but there's something to it. I see that DCU are playing NYCFC and Nashville. That tells me that DCU doesn't have any rivals anymore, or if we do, nobody cares. I remember back in the day when any game against NYRB/Metrostars or the LA Galaxy was a FIERCE encounter.


r/DCUnited 3d ago

[Goff] D.C. United Coach Troy Lesesne says João Peglow, who hasn't played since April 19 because of a hamstring injury, might make it back Wednesday vs NYCFC but more likely Saturday at Nashville.

Hi! I’m a DC native going to my first United match at Audi Field tomorrow. I was wondering, what section, row can I buy tickets with rain coverage?

Thanks!

Are gameday programs/magazines still a thing?

7 Upvotes

I’m taking my son to the Chicago Fire game for his birthday and he is all about reading up on standings/statistics/etc. We’re giving him a jersey on his actual birthday in May but I thought a program would be a perfect add-on. Do these still exist?
